Yuying Li
Senior Research Associate
PhD University of Waterloo, 1988

My research interests are in numerical optimization and, more generally, scientific computation. I am also interested in solving real world application problems using optimization techniques.

My current interests include generalizing the trust region theory for unconstrained minimization to nonlinearly constrained minimization. On the application front, I have been working on image enhancement by optimization algorithms. My current research focus is on solving an important optimization problem: the location problem with Euclidean norm.
